Chapter 021: Auction
Wang Zhiru sings very well, her voice is clear and bright, and she is very beautiful. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Zhan suddenly discovered that Wang Zhiru is actually very talented, and it seems that in the field she is familiar with, she can always do things to the extreme, which is a good material for cultivating truth. To cultivate truth, one must be gifted and understanding, the second must be diligent and hardworking, and the third must endure loneliness. But there is another most important thing that is often overlooked, that is, to be able to take what is generally considered to be perfect, and re-achieve it to the extreme in constant repetition, and Wang Zhiru seems to have this ability.
After singing the song, Wang Zhiru came over and asked, "Brother Li Zhan, what do you want?"
"Well, I'm trying to teach you something, how to teach you. Li Zhan is indeed thinking about this aspect, Wang Zhiru's ability to do things to the extreme can be said to be very rare in modern society.
The impetuous society makes people do things in a hurry, and most people always start with a stunning start, and then slowly wear out their talents in an impetuous mood, until they finally achieve nothing and waste a lot of time. And if Wang Zhiru is accepted as an apprentice, Li Zhan doesn't have to worry about this aspect at all, because Wang Zhiru's ability will make her insist on doing her best. It can be said that even if a person like Wang Zhiru is no longer talented, she is destined to shine through ordinary work. The more Li Zhan looked at Wang Zhiru, the more he liked it, and he even planned a training plan for Wang Zhiru in his heart.
Wang Zhiru looked at Li Zhan as if he was going to play seriously, and hurriedly made a frightened look and said: "Ah, you are thinking about this, are you going to teach me like you taught Sister Xiaoya?" After that, he hugged Li Zhan's arm and shook it: "Don't, I'm not your official apprentice, so don't be so strict, okay?" Seeing that Li Zhan seemed unmoved, Wang Zhiru's eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Ah! I thought about it, why don't I teach you to sing, so that we can just level out, you can't be too strict with me, hehe." β
Li Zhan said speechlessly: "I don't sing again. β
Wang Zhiru smiled: "Your voice is so magnetic, you must be very good at singing, it's a pity not to sing." β
"Singing is not my specialty, to be serious, I think you are a material that can be made, and I decided to teach you the cultivation method, you will move to me from tomorrow onwards, and eat and live with Huang Xiaoya. β
Hearing Li Zhan say this, Wang Zhiru felt a burst of joy in his heart, but there was a reluctant look on his face, and he pouted: "Ah! Brother Li Zhan, you are still here!"
Li Zhan smiled and nodded.
The two were talking, when Li Zhan's phone suddenly rang, and when he took it out, he saw that it was Lin Wei calling.
"It's almost two o'clock, and it's time for us to go. β
"Well, here we go. Li Zhan put down the phone, stood up and said to Wang Zhiru: "We are going to the auction, if you want, you will go to my place tomorrow to report no." β
Wang Zhiru hurriedly stood up and said, "I'll go to the auction too." β
"Didn't your grandfather say you didn't like the atmosphere of the auction?"
===============================
Linjiang Pavilion is located next to the Qiantang River, built along the river, just to see the tide of the Qiantang River, is recognized as the holy place for tide viewing. It takes about 30 minutes to drive from the palace to Linjiang Pavilion.
When Li Zhan and the others arrived at Linjiang Pavilion, it was almost 3 o'clock, and everyone had already entered. There were only four security guards and a manager-like person walking back and forth at the door. The manager originally had a sad face, but as soon as he saw Li Zhan and them, he immediately smiled and walked over quickly: "Ouch, Elder Wang, you can come, Miss Zhiru and Young Master Lin are also here?" β
The manager bowed his head and led the way in front, and said as he walked: "Elder Wang, the rough stone you asked me to pay attention to a few days ago happened to have a piece of excellent color this time. The manager introduced very enthusiastically, if Wang Gui didn't come this time, he would probably cry, that rough stone is not cheap. This time, in order to earn a little more, he bought it out of his own pocket a few days ago. If Wang Gui doesn't come, he is really afraid that the price will not rise. After all, most people still prefer finished jade carvings with better ornamental properties. If the spirit stone hadn't been too hard last time, and the carver couldn't do anything about him, it is estimated that it would not have appeared.
"Manager Li has a heart, and I have more research on the rough stone, and I just took him to take a look at it this time. β
At first, Manager Li didn't care about Li Zhan, although Li Zhan didn't look humble or arrogant, and the whole person was full of energy, but his clothes were too shabby, so when he heard Wang Gui call Li Zhan a brother, he suddenly looked away secretly, and hurriedly apologized: "Forgive the little one-eyed, I don't know what to call the son." β
"My name is Li Zhan. β
"It turned out to be Li Zhan Li Gongzi, our family, the little one is also surnamed Li, everyone calls me Xiao Li, or call me my full name Li Quanfang, this is my business card and the membership card of our club, and I hope to hold the little brother more in the future." Li Quanfang took out a business card box from his pocket, took out a membership card made of pure gold and a very high-end business card from it and handed them to Li Zhan. The membership card still weighs a little in your hand, and it should be one or two heavy, and it will be very low.
Li Zhan didn't know that Li Quanfang's card was not given by anyone. If you have money and no status, you can ask for a card, a card starts at 200,000, and it is earned dozens of times, and it is still the kind of card with a one-year period. If he hadn't come with Wang Lao this time, Li Zhan probably wouldn't have even been able to enter the outside door, let alone this kind of permanent VIP card.
"Li Gongzi seems to come to the Jiang Pavilion relatively rarely, and when I am free one day, I will take Gongzi for a walk. Our Linjiang Pavilion is the top resort club in the entire Central Plains. Not to mention that our Qiantang River tide is unique in the world, let's just say that our beauties in Suzhou and Hangzhou ......" Li Quanfang was halfway through speaking, and suddenly realized that Wang Zhiru was glaring at him, so he smiled embarrassedly, and whispered to Li Zhan: "Anyway, you want to come to the Jiang Pavilion, just look for me!" and then greeted Wang Gui loudly: "Then I'll be here, Wang Lao, you go in first, I'll go outside to see who else hasn't arrived, well, this auction is still in the No. 1 Tide Viewing Pavilion." β
Seeing Li Quanfang walking away, Wang Zhiru said to Li Zhan: "Brother Li, don't pay attention to that person just now, he is the son of the fifth son of the Li family in Lin'an, and he is not taken seriously. It's hey, but he takes the name of the son of the Li family all day long, goes to the school girl, and then includes it in his club... Well, the escort, the out-and-out exile. β
Li Zhan knew what Wang Zhiru was referring to. The Great Song Dynasty did not explicitly stipulate that the women's branch could not be opened, but it was not advocated after all, so now the women's branch has also gone underground, and it is called the three major industries of Hedao along with tobacco houses and gambling houses, which are despised by the people. Therefore, seeing that Linjiang Pavilion is so famous, Li Zhan did not expect that there would be a female branch.
The four of them came to the door of the auction hall, and their own security guards came up to inquire about the registration, handed out the bidding signs, and then opened the door to let them go. Because Li Zhan knew that even if he had a spirit stone, he didn't have the money to buy it, so the four of them only took two bidding cards, one for Lin Wei and one for Wang Gui.
The atmosphere in the auction hall was very good, and everyone got together and whispered to each other. Seeing someone coming in, many people looked up, and when they saw Wang Gui, most of them hugged their fists and greeted him.
Wang Gui's seat was relatively high, and there was a small round table, and after the four of them sat down, a waiter soon brought fruits, drinks, and a booklet of the auction items. Lin Wei immediately shouted that it was unfair, saying that he used to sit in the back, not only did he not have fruit drinks, but he even had to pay for the booklet himself. This naturally aroused the collective contempt of everyone.
Li Zhan flipped through the booklet casually, and was suddenly disappointed, the original stone was not a spirit stone. Wang Gui also saw Li Zhan's disappointed expression, so he said, "Aren't you satisfied?"
"Well, without what I wanted, can the original owner of the rough last time be contacted?"
Wang Gui said: "Wait and ask Li Quanfang in private." β
Li Zhan nodded and said, "That's the only way." β
The whole auction lasted almost two hours, and it was almost five o'clock when it ended, and the final piece of rough was still auctioned by Wang Gui at a high price. Li Zhan knew that Wang Gui didn't want to owe Li Quanfang favors, or Wang Gui thought it would be better to let Li Zhan owe favors to others.
As soon as the auction ended, an elderly man at the adjacent table walked over to Wang Gui and said, "General Wang seems to be particularly interested in the original stone?"
"I'm not a general for a long time, so don't torture me. Wang Gui said as he made a gesture to the Shi Taifu. Shi Taifu Li Zhan has heard of it, his original name is Shi Hao, and he is a person who is highly evaluated by the people. used to be the teacher of Emperor Zhao Yan, and it is said that Zhang Jun, the grandfather of Lin Wei's fiancΓ©e Zhang Zi, was promoted by him.
On the side, Lin Wei and Wang Zhiru were also busy saluting with Mrs. Shi.
Shi Hao smiled and said: "General Wang doesn't have to be formal, although I scolded you before, it was also caused by impatience, and now I want to open it, if you come out back then, you will also die." Shi Hao said very frankly, and Wang Gui actually blushed a little.
"I know I was a bastard back then, but I had no choice but to do it, but I'm so sorry for the marshal. β
Shi Hao saw Wang Gui like this, and knew that he was not happy in his heart, and sighed: "Until now, you don't have to blame yourself too much, I am sorting out the information and preparing to rehabilitate Marshal Yue, and I hope that Wang Lao can come forward to explain." β
"Really?" Seeing Shi Hao nodding, Wang Lao was even more excited and tears fell.
Yue Fei is an anti-minister, but Shi Hao and Wang Gui call him marshal in public without scruples. If Gaozong was still the emperor, maybe the two would have been put in prison. But now Li Zhan understands a little. The texts or TV programs that Li Zhan has been exposed to in the past all say that Yue Fei is disrespectful and is a rebellious minister and thief, but now it seems that it is not like that. Maybe the folk legends are true, this is probably the so-called justice in the hearts of the people.
